Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?
Got a hell of a deal on brake pads. Centric Premium ceramic pads w/ shims for $38 shipped. Front and rear thanks to my good buddy maxcichon (he should be forum mvp, along with onehundred80 and a few others) giving me the heads up on the BA sale RockAuto.com is having. Go stock up if you have extra funds!! Gosh I love this forum
Actually from Valk!

You'll have to excuse the windshield surround clips, but this is mine with 11% tint. I know the question wasn't directed at me but I love the way it looks with the black paint. Illegal as a **** though

Accidentally debadged her when I went in the garage to tinker with it.. That always seems to happen it was barely hanging on so I guess it was good that it came off tonight. Otherwise it would probably be laying in a ditch somewhere a few months from now. I think I am going to paint it black, as well as the front wing emblem and grille. Maybe spray the engine cover black too. I'm going to start calling her Black Betty with all the parts I've been painting black lately. I love my car

Supposedly got pulled over for "illegal tint" but in reality it was because I turned off before a road block and cop was behind me. We bought it like this and that is the first trouble we've had in five years. I say go for it man. Unless you live in a really small town. I usually ride with mine down just to be safe bc my town is 12k people. But in bigger cities I am not even concerned with it.

I used a blow dryer and dental floss. I heated it up for thirty seconds on each letter and then slid the floss behind it. I then continued to heat it and very slightly rub the adhesive off with a razor knife. After that I used Goo-Gone to get the rest of the adhesive and water build up that collected underneath it. Then a coat of wax to get the goo gone off. Not a bad project. An hour to do it, maybe two hours if you really get picky.

Very carefully!!! I was surprised too it worked really good though. The adhesive made a barrier to the paint, and it allowed me to scrape under the foam-ish stuff that was glued under the letters. It worked really good and there are no scratches

Reinstalled front clip after being repainted and license plate holes filled, LED lights installed (All around), clear side markers installed, Zunsport upper and lower grilles installed, last but least, front and rear chrome wing medallion are now color matched with Andrews emblems.
